Someone keeps leaving religious tracts hidden in the lockers at my gym. Actually this has happened at both 24 Hour Fitness and at my work gym, so I guess it's some sort of tactic they're embracing now. Like, they know we won't read the thing if they hand it to us, but if they force us to accidentally look at it, it's like, "Haha! Gotcha! You're a christian now!"

I went for a run on my lunch break today to gauge how I felt compared to my 5am runs. I'm proud of myself for doing those early morning workouts, but they've been so hard, I've been really discouraged. I wanted to run at my "regular" time so I could figure out if I'm in a running slump or if I just haven't adjusted to the early mornings. I did 3 miles and the jury's still out...I was more fatigued than I expected to be, but ultimately got through the run without slowing down at all, so I guess I did somewhat better this time. Another factor is that the morning runs are with a group, and I spend a lot of time talking. Trying to talk definitely adds to the exertion. There's no doubt, though, that I'm far from my tip top running condition. Seems like a little from column A, a little from column B...

Last night at the gym, we did the brand new Body Pump workout. Holy shit. They've been trending toward more and more intensity over the past few releases, and this one is No Joke. I'm sore as fuck today. So that may also have had something to do with my lackadaisical run. But whatever, I'm kicking ass. Mostly my own, but that's the point.

Most ridiculous injury ever

I may have just punched myself in the chest while ripping off a piece of toilet paper with just a little too much vigor.
